Number of players: 6 or more
Setup: 3 attackers and 3 defenders behind cones at the side of the grid.
Size of grid : dependent on your players skills, it should approximate the size that they would work in on the field in this kick chase situation.
Action: On the coaches go all the players run into the grid and go to their respective cones.The coach rolls a ball to cone 1 on the attacking side for player 1 to pick up.As the attacking players reach their cones they talk and organise to return the ball.The defenders try to stop them reaching the goal line as soon as they have touched their cone.
Get a player (9 10 ?) to kick the ball for player 1 to catch..send the players out later / earlier than the ball.Change the placement of the cones.Get the players to nominate which cone to go to..get them talking!Vary the defensive component..touch, 2 hand touch,grab,tackle
Allow the attackers to chip over the defenders, add another defender and attacker coming late for this so the rest of the group has to watch and participate.If a breakdown occurs..play on to the ruck / maul so the rest of the players have to be ready to join in.Decide on your chasing formation..flat line of 3, or 1 pressurer and 2 cover each side if he beats pressurer, or?.Finish by starting in a game situation and seeing if it works...who covers the chip..the long kick back ?
